Answer:

Particles of different masses have the same average kinetic energy at a given temperature

Step-by-step explanation:

The temperature is the measure of the average kinetic energy of a molecules. At a given temperature, the average kinetic energy of the molecules of different bodies of different masses are approximately the same.

Answer:

c. Particles of different masses have the same average kinetic energy at a given temperature.

Step-by-step explanation:

There are three states of matter namely: Solid, liquid and gas. Each state of matter is influenced by conditions such as pressure, temperature, volume etc.

The higher the temperature the higher the number of collisions of gas particles.

Particles of different masses have the same average kinetic energy at a given temperature.
